Stay Safe on Zubbah

General Safety Advice

• Meet Seller in Person. — Meet the seller in person, check the item and make sure you are satisfied with it before you make a payment. Keep things local.
• Exchange item and payment at the same time. — Buyers — don't make any payments before receiving an item. Sellers — don't send an item before receiving payment.
• Apply Common Sense. — Avoid anything that appears too good to be true, such as unrealistically low prices and promises of quick money. Avoid meeting up for trade at strange locations.
• Never give out financial information. — This includes bank account details, eBay/PayPal info, and any other information that could be misused

Scams & Frauds To Watch Out For

• Fake payment services. — Zubbah does not offer any form of payment scheme or protection. Please report any emails claiming to offer such services. Avoid using online payment services or escrow sites unless you are 100% sure that they are genuine.
• Fake information requests. — Zubbah verifies first-time posters to improve security of the site. If you receive an email from us asking for any personal details, we recommend that you contact us directly via phone to communicate your details and avoid potential scams.
• Fake fee requests. — Avoid anyone that ask for extra fees to buy or sell an item or service. Zubbah never requests payments for its basic services, and doesn't allow items that are not located in Ghana, so import and brokerage fees should never be required.
• Requests to use money transfer services such as Western Union or MoneyGram. These services are not meant for transactions between strangers and many scams are run through them. Avoid requests to use these services.
